we spent most of easter sunday working again on the shower.
(left) at the top: grouted tile, below: ungrouted tile with a little grout haze. (right) here i’m wiping off the haze after the wall has been grouted and sponged.
mixing more thin-set mortar. setting the shower floor tile.
we worked fairly late, cutting and shaping the shower curb tile. rounding the solid travertine edges involves cutting a bevel with the tile saw, then sanding it with 3 grades of sandpaper. (left) feeling strong after sanding. (right) the shower curb tile in place.
